FELFEL B'TOMATISH - ALGERIAN PEPPER & TOMATO SALAD



Felfel B'tomatish - Algerian Pepper & Tomato Salad image

This is a classic Algerian 'salad' dish. You can either grill the tomatoes & peppers over an open flame, deep fry them or roast them. My family loves this recipe & we always mop it up with fresh bread! You can also serve this as part of a mezze selection. The vinegar is of course optional but it acts as a flavour enhancer so I do recommend at least trying a little of the salad with a few drops of vinegar on!

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. The best tomatoes for this salad are ripe, juicy, and flavorful. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes.
  • Choose the right peppers. You can use any type of pepper for this salad, but bell peppers, chili peppers, and jalapeños are popular choices. If you want a milder salad, use a sweet pepper such as a bell pepper. If you want a spicier salad, use a hot pepper such as a chili pepper or jalapeño.
  • Don't overcook the peppers. The peppers should be cooked until they are softened, but not mushy. Overcooked peppers will lose their flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Olive oil is a key ingredient in this salad, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Look for an olive oil that is extra virgin and has a fruity flavor.
  • Add some fresh herbs. Fresh herbs can brighten up the flavor of this salad. Some good choices include parsley, cilantro, and mint.
